The Cleveland Cavaliers have decided to replace the team’s longstanding in-game entertainment in the Cavaliers Girls in favor of a new co-ed dance team called the Cavs PowerHouse Dance Team.
The new squad is being described as “a competitive level precision team specializing in high-energy tricks, tumbling and extremely dynamic choreography.”
Also being added to in-game entertainment are the Cavs Dancing Dads, the all-kids Cavs Star Squad and the acrobatic Pogoliers.
“Our dance and entertainment teams are always evolving, and we want them to reflect the most contemporary and innovative approach to crowd engagement and entertainment we can provide,” said Senior Manager of Dance and Entertainment Katie Gibbons, in a release.
Longtime Cavaliers Girl Dakota Samberg couldn’t help but voice her displeasure with the team’s decision to eliminate all female-only dance teams.

The Scream Team will be continuing its presence for a 15th season, while the drum line team QStix will also be back but under a new name, 216Stix.
